My 2001 E320cdi estate just tipped 500,000km, that equals 310000miles. I live in Norway and drive it on snowy roads three months every winter, lovely handling! But salt kills it, rusty as H€££!!! Chip-tuned to ~470ft-lbs, differential is getting worn.....

So due to the rust, not the mileage, I've just bought a new old merc. It's a 2007 E220CDI estate, with norwegian taxes it's $120.000,- new..... Got this a bit cheaper though. Just 100.000 miles on it.

SL600 r230, SL600 r129,, SL500 r230, ML320, C280 Sport, 190e 2.3 16V (2)
I just retired my 2001 E430 Sport due to rust at 357,000 miles. Still ran great, but the rust was too much.
Still was averaging 25mpg on the long trip odo with almost 90 hours on that clock.
Best car ever.
Replaced with an S500 and a ML350.

Combined average for my 320CDI is 35MPG but have seen 52. Not bad for a 13 year old two ton wagon.
I'm about to disable the EGR cos it's doing no good.
The subframe bushings are sluggish, same thing With the rollbar. Still handling better than a New BMW

Currently @ 120,000 miles and so far, still terrorizing challengers. Not sure how much longer I'll keep her though. The soothing, yet violent call of the V12 keeps beckoning me.
Now if they ever made an E600 or E65, that would be perfect. And no, the Brabus doesn't count, heh.

e320 2002 4matic
Bought it new in 2002. Runs great. Have had some work on the A/C and shocks.
It has 100,285 miles.
We just bought a new 2014 E250 CDI 4matic.
I was going to sell the 2002 but was offered a measly 5K for it.
Better to keep it as a second car.

Mercedes E320CDI Estate 1998 X reg
Just passing 195,000miles and eating motorways still very smooth drive
Had to replace couple of injector seals as top of engine was smoking from all burnt diesel that had leaked out (sleep apnoea hazard!!)
Missing a bit when pulling away at low revs so will try new air filter
Smokes like crazy sometimes when accelerating hard on motorway (literally a black cloud vehind us, any tips to improve / lessen this?) just tried Redex oil leak stop?
Best value car I'vd had in 40 years, 34mpg on motorway runs
Dark blue metallic and just de-rusted door bonnet edges so need touch up paint, what colour do I need 'Azure?' Where is the colour code detail plate, thanks

Ummmmm....yes, agreed, probably safe to say!...However you've peaked my curiosity on this one. Being I'm pretty sure it's not the only car you own, or maybe I assume wrong?.... Details please!

2012 C250 Coupe, 2017 C43 AMG Coupe
Year:1999
Model: E320 Special Edition
Miles: 104k
Second owner: Bought 4 years ago from original owner with 57k. Maintenance records show a door molding replaced during that time.
Maintenance/Replaced since I've owned it: Front O2 sensor, parking brake control, outer right tie rod, front right/left lower ball joints.
Also had issues with symptoms of vapor lock, it ended up being something else that is common on w210's but I can't remember what it was.
Everything else is routine service! Been extremely happy with it, lifelong Mercedes fan!
